Charter Bus Rentals for Long-distance and Overnight Camp Trips Out of Ames

Many summer camps in Ames rely on charter buses to bring campers to and from their facilities at the beginning and end of each session. These trips often involve long-distance travel across state lines, which can be challenging for families to coordinate on their own. A charter bus provides a convenient, all-in-one solution that ensures every child arrives safely and on time.

Our 56-passenger motor coaches are ideal for these types of trips, offering ample seating for large groups and plenty of storage space for luggage, sports equipment, and musical instruments. Onboard amenities such as reclining seats, climate control, Wi-Fi, and DVD players make it easy for campers to relax and stay entertained during the journey. Parents can rest easy knowing that their children are in good hands, while camp directors appreciate the simplicity of coordinating arrivals and departures with a single transportation provider.

We can also arrange airport transfers to and from Des Moines International Airport (DSM) for campers traveling from out of state. Our drivers will meet your group at the terminal, assist with baggage claim, and escort everyone directly to the bus. With a private charter, there’s no need to worry about missed connections or navigating unfamiliar public transit systems.
